Very nice find! 8)

I'm contemplating a trakbike of my own at this point in time. If something comes together, I'll post up here fo sho!




In the mean time. I picked up a little something on a trade. Not exactly a direct purchase, but money did change hands on that traded item a while back.







It should be a little "curvier" when it's all welded together. ;D

Still looking for a silencer.

Cool man, That's really nice. I dig how you kept the tank and oil tank/side cover.

Picked up a 69 triumph trophy today. This is about as good of a barnfind as I've seen to date. I spent a few hours cleaning her off. She was covered in wd40 and had a thick tarp over it for about 10-12 years.

Just about bought the exact same one except green last October. Lovely little bikes.

That thing is cherry! Wish I could find a barn around here stocked with that kind of gold!

Your collection is getting rather large, Keith. Ha!

Great Triumph- looks like fun.

 

[Tifun]

Thanks guys. Planning to try and start it tonight. Simple oil change, add gas and kick over.

My little T100 sat for 9 years and with fresh plugs and gas, she fired right up.

Craigslist find! Horizontal metal band saw for $45!

Just had to adjust the alignment bearings, spray a little wd-40 on the cast iron table and get a new switch. Boom!

Also, I don't have it on the legs right now. Will do that later. Still sore from dragging it out of my car... ;D Heavy!

I got it started today. Terrifying. Considering selling it. True story.

Picked up a Triumph Trident and a few other bits . . . will be unloading the chopper seats, one is a Corbin Widowmaker MK2. Also will be unloading the Trident frame, engine and front end- has title, matching numbers, decent compression.

The rear rack is coming off, and I'll put a pillion pad on there - this thing is silly as hell, but my wife is excited about going out two-up (this is big news for me). 1978 GL1000, 45K miles, all major maintenance done (read: timing belts, water pump, stator wiring). Damn near new tires and battery - at a good friend price.

Going to paint the crash bars black, adjust the windshield so that my head doesn't get bobbed around, and ride it to North Carolina in September for a wedding.

It is a weird bike to ride - the weight is down low, so it handles really well; it's super comfortable, but not at all exciting. That said, I wasn't paying attention to the speedo and looked down to see it was at 100. Going to have to watch that.

 

[buckeyebike]

Damn, looks clean!

 

[stroker crazy]

Good one Rich Ard!

Those screens keep the bugs, rain, and wind off, but they don't do much for the mpg (or the looks).
